The pathway of Airway, Breathing, and Circulation has now been updated to Circulation, Airway, and Breathing.

AED Myth or Truth? – Don’t Use an AED in Water
True – Remember that water is a great conductor of electricity. Even excessive moisture on the victim’s skin can decrease the effectiveness of an AED shock. Rescuer’s should always remember to
- Move the victim to a dry area if he or she is in free-standing water
- Ensure that the victims chest is dry and that you (the rescuer) are dry. If you work in an aquatic environment ensure that a towel is always nearby the AED.
